Eyelet curtains create a dazzling alternate that add style to traditional and contemporary gathered curtain heading. These eyelets are available in metal as well as plastic material that are threaded onto a curtain pole. On drawing the curtain, these eyelets form soft pleats. Eyelets are available in 4 colors.

Traditionally the eyelets were punched by hand onto the curtains. But today eyelet headed tape is used to make modern looking curtains in no time. To make a curtain with eyelet will approximately take 3 hours or so.

But we suggest home owners to choose light weighted to medium weighted fabric for curtains that hand easily and form softer pleats. Also while buying the eyelets, home owners shall note the pole diameter so that the eyelets easily fit into it.

Eyelet headings are not an appropriate fitting for curtain tracks and bay window options i.e. windows without pole for curtains.
